MEET FATHER KINO, S.J. Father Eusebius Kino was a Renaissance man, a typical Jesuit multi-tasker and Apostle to the Pima Nation, explorer of the American Southwest and Mexican Sonora, farmer, teacher, animal husbandry expert, cartographer, astronomer and mathematician. However, little is known about Father Kino’s fierce opposition to the enslavement of any human being. He struggled constantly to prevent fortune hunters, entrepreneurs, and political and military figures from exploiting Natives of the newly discovered lands. Come and spend three evenings with this Arizona pioneer from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., Wednesdays in Room 5 at St. Philip the Apostle Parish Hall, 511 S. St. Phillips St. The program dates are July 8, 15 and 22. Please call Judith Carroll, class facilitator, at (928) 4741269 and leave your name and phone number. This study is free of charge.

SIDE TRIPS On the way to Tucson — it’s around a five-hour trip from Payson — you might want to stop at Picacho Peak State Park, it’s about half-way between Phoenix and Tucson and is the site of the largest Civil War battle in Arizona, taking place April 15, 1862, when Confederate and Union scouting parties met. Once in Tucson, if you are taking a couple of days to visit the area, head down I-19 to Tubac Presidio State Historic Park. Now through Sept. 30, it is hosting a Special Museographic Exhibition: “Cerro de Trincheras Archaeological Site.” Visitors can take a journey through the history of Trincheras, from the first settlers to the current protection of the first archaeological site in the State of Sonora. This 20-panel international display was produced and installed by the Sonoran division of the Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia, a Mexican federal government bureau established in 1939. The panels display photographs of artifacts, archaeological features and reconstructions of what life was like from the Pleistocene to the present. The texts are in Spanish with an English translation available. Tubac Park gives visitors a look

Taking a short trip down to Tucson and/or Bisbee from Payson, make time to visit one of the several state parks on the route. Picacho Peak State Park, top photo, is a nice place to stop and stretch your legs on the five-hour trip to Tucson. Make advance arrangements to visit Kartchner Caverns on the way to Bisbee.
back into the days of the European exploration of the Southwest. The church and the military were the vanguards of Spanish frontier expansion throughout New Spain. The Jesuit, Eusebio Francisco Kino, established missions from 1687 to 1711 in the area. He established nearby Tumacacori (now a National Historic Park and another great place to visit) in 1691, and Tubac, then a small Piman village, became a mission farm and ranch. Spanish Colonists began to settle here during the 1730s, irrigating and farming the lands along the river and raising cattle, sheep and goats on the northern frontier of
Spain’s New World empire. Rather than going further south on I-19 toward Nogales and going the “back” way to Bisbee, return to Tucson and head east on I-10 and take the road from Benson to Bisbee. But before heading to Bisbee you might want to make another state park stop — you will need reservations though. The incredible Kartchner Caverns State Park is at Benson. A tour of the site is by reservation only and these must be made no later than 24 hours in advance. Go the to azstateparks. com for details. Enjoy these short trips. More to follow.

AT THE MOVIES
TED 2
Hard ‘R’ comedy offers something to think about We best know Seth McFarlane for his quirky, foul-mouthed take on contemporary life as exhibited by his now long-running TV adult cartoon shows “Family Guy,” “American Dad” and “The Cleveland Show.” He created the characters, he produced the shows and he supplied the voices for many of his cartoon characters. At 41 years of age McFarlane has achieved extravagant wealth and success. In some ways his new live action movie “Ted 2” achieves both a more mature theme than its “Ted” predecessor and also in some ways a harder edge to real life. It does continue the award of a hard “R” rating for terrible language, funny but shocking humor and adult situations. We continue to warn young folks from McFarlane’s work. For those who missed the original “Ted” — the story involves John (Mark Wahlberg), a slacker of limited gifts who seems content to spend his life getting high on pot and making snarky comments to his best friend Ted — voiced by McFarlane himself.

HOLLYWOOD | TONY RIZZO
Social media playing role in entertainment Guess we can’t ignore social media anymore! Justin Bieber was discovered singing on a YouTube video that led him to the platinum recording of “My World,” and Taylor Swift invited 89 of her biggest fans, from social media, to her home last year to hear her new album first. Everything’s changing. Years ago, backstage at a taping of “The Facts of Life,” I overheard NBC executives discussing actors in teen magazines as potential guest stars because of the social-media fan base they could bring to the show. Today the top people being followed on social media are: Katy Perry (71 million), Justin Bieber (65 million), President Barack Obama (61 million),
Taylor Swift (59 million), Lady Gaga (48 million), Rihanna (47 million), Justin Timberlake (46.5 million) and Ellen DeGeneres (44.5 million). Once upon a time, actors went on interviews, read for parts, screen tested and were given a role. Today, they need to have a big social media following as well. A new, imaginative, heart-warming teen comedy, “Mamaboy,” has just been cast, and even though the three final actors were equally qualified, the one with the largest social-media following landed the lead role. We can’t reveal his name yet, but I’ve read the script, and it’s poignant in a “Footloose” meets “Junior” kind of way. Stay tuned.
“MINIONS”
“Minions” will supply good-humored mayhem along with plenty of laughter. This one has a safe and sane PG rating which makes it suitable for younger viewers. Watch and see if Scarlet Overkill can take over the world. “THE GALLOWS”
On a more somber note, the horror film “The Gallows” also opens on July 10. In an attempt to honor the memory of a schoolmate who perished decades earlier, local high school students reprise a failed stage play on the anniversary of the tragic passing. Bad idea. The movie is not yet rated but involves death and horror.

RIM HISTORY RIM HISTORY RIM COUNTRY HISTORY | TIM EHRHARDT
HELLS GATE – BEAUTY & ADVENTURE Southeast of Payson is Hells Gate and the Hellsgate Wilderness Area. It is a remote, wild area that has plenty of history. Here is a closer look. The book “Rim Country History,” published in 1984 by the Northern Gila County Historical Society, provides this description of Hells Gate. “Hells Gate — is located on Tonto Creek, a few miles below Bear Flat. At one time, it was the only crossing or gateway along that part of Tonto Creek for cattle coming or going to Pleasant Valley from the Payson-Pine country. This was a very steep and deep canyon and cowboys driving the cattle gave it the fitting name, Hells Gate.” Hells Gate is located where Tonto Creek and Haigler Creek meet, and the Hellsgate Wilderness Area covers 37,440 acres near this landmark. This was designated as a wilderness area in 1984. It stretches from Bear Flat in the northeast to nearly Gisela

An overnight camping trip in this area is also popular. People hike in from Little Green Valley and eventually come out at Gisela. The canyon is so narrow in spots that people have to float down Tonto Creek to get through. Nevertheless, it is said to be some of the most scenic country around. Someone posted a video of their hike to Hells Gate from Little Green Valley that can be seen at http://arizonapathfinders.com/ Hellsgate-Vid.html. The Hellsgate Wilderness Area is an easy one in which to get lost. Through the years many search efforts have had to be undertaken to rescue injured or lost hikers. It is challenging even for the most experienced outdoor enthusiast. But it is a gorgeous area with a reputation for great fishing; one of just many out of the way gems in this area that has some unique history.

Some people are skeptics and For centuries skeptics have critics when it comes to believing tried to reconstruct, rearrange in, receiving and following Jesus. and re-identify who Jesus is, yet These doubters not only disbe- the Scriptures clearly state in lieve scripture, and eyewitness the writings of Hebrews, “Jesus accounts, but they question Jesus’ Christ is the same yesterday, and claims Himself, distorting the true today and forever.” Hebrews 13:8 So when asking yourself in accounts. This philosophy did not just which side to believe … factuhappen recently in the 21st centu- al accounts of Jesus versus the
historical Jesus, the answers lie in some questions that would help you to clarify on which side you stand. Do you stand on the side of believing that Jesus is the Messiah? Or do you stand on the side of the critics adapting a historical philosophy? Are the Gospels accurate historical records or merely religious propaganda? Did Jesus really claim to be God, and how do we know if He is? THE DEITY OF CHRIST
Who do you say that I am? This is Jesus’ question to Peter when the critics of the day questioned Him. Mark’s account states, “He said to them, ‘But who do you say that I am?’ Peter answered and said to Him, ‘You are the Christ.’” Luke’s account states, “He said to them, ‘But who do you say that I am?’ Peter answered and said, ‘The Christ of God.’” Jesus begs the answer to this question and those following Him answered the question properly. Let us look at Jesus and additional Scripture. What else did Jesus say about Himself? “All things have been handed over to Me by My Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father; nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and anyone to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.” [1] Matthew 11:21 “But of that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone.” [2] Mark 13:32 But He kept silent and did not answer. Again the high priest was
questioning Him, and saying to Him, “Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?” And Jesus said, “I am; and you shall see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.” [3] Mark 14:61-62 Critics do not accept the claim and factual truth that Jesus made declaring He is God. Here are some Scripture accounts that refute the doubt that the critics and skeptics have. Jesus clearly declares who He is.
Christ in I Corinthians 15. Read and learn of Jesus and who He is and His resurrection. Now, you decide. Decide for yourself, based on the evidence of Jesus, His claims of declaring with great accuracy that He is who He says He is. Will you accept Jesus and all of HIS factual accounts of Him being the Messiah; of his truthful claim of being the Son of God, the Son of Man and the promised Savior sent to redeem a fallen mankind back to holy God through the shed blood of Jesus?
THE RESURRECTION
RESOURCES
Although most critics doubt who Christ is, His resurrection and the evidence of the Gospel accounts. Some critics accept Paul’s writings in the Bible over the Gospels, because Apostle Paul and his writings are a valid source to believe that the resurrection truly took place. There are many reasons why the critics of Christ accept Paul’s writings over the Gospels; some include; 1) Paul’s writings are much earlier than that of the Gospels, thus more believable 2) Paul wrote his epistles approximately AD 54-57 ... at the very most 27 years after the crucifixion, so it is easier to believe Paul as an eyewitness with what he saw and wrote. 3) Critics are willing to believe that Paul did see the risen Jesus. Liars do not make martyrs and that his is the most important fact. Apostle Paul gives clear account on the resurrection of

COVER STORY | TERESA MCQUERREY
Photos courtesy of Arizona State Parks
The start of school is just around the corner — Monday, Aug. 3 — but there is still time to make a few trips to not only the Arizona State Park in our backyard, Tonto Natural Bridge (above), but also to Fort Verde State Historical Park in Camp Verde (at right). Fort Verde is just over the Rim from Payson, making for a fun, quick trip.
Make some summer memories
Students in the Rim Country return to school in less than a month now — classes resume Monday, Aug. 3. So, if you still want to squeeze a few summer memories into your children’s mental scrapbooks, consider visiting some state parks and other nearby attractions. Start with a visit to the state park in your own backyard — Tonto Natural Bridge State Park. Put on some sturdy hiking boots or shoes (not flatlander flip-flops), pack a picnic lunch and plenty of water and head out early. The park is open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., daily (last admission at 5 p.m.) through Sept. 7. Admission is $5 per person for those 14 and older; $2 per person everyone 7-13; and 6 and under are free if they are accompanied by an adult. This weekend, from 11 a.m. to 12:15 p.m., Saturday, July 11, the park has a special event scheduled: Clovis Points to Copper Bells: the Prehistoric Archaeology of the Payson Basin with J. Scott Wood. Wood was the Tonto National Forest archaeologist from 1975 to 2015 and for the last seven years has served as adviser to the Rim Country Chapter of the Arizona Archaeological Society and director of the ongoing Goat Camp Ruin Excavation, Stabilization and Interpretive Development Project
for the Town of Payson. For an hour or so in the beautiful outdoor setting of Tonto Natural Bridge State Park learn about the archaeology of the area around the park, from Payson to the Rim and from Star Valley to Strawberry, who lived here when, what they did, why they came, and why they left, from the first nomadic big game hunters to the farmers living in 200-room villages. There will also be discussion about the relationships all of these people had with their environment, how they influenced it and how, ultimately, it directed their behavior and determined their ultimate fate. There will be time for questions and answers following the program. The event is free with purchase of day use entrance into the park. For information about this event email Gavin at gerickson@ azstateparks.gov or call (928) 4764202. The following weekend, from 11 a.m. to 12:15 p.m., Saturday, July 18 there will be a program on Settlers of the Natural Bridge. Members of the Northern Gila County Historical Society will be doing the presentation. The event will be held in the Lodge dining room; due to the limited space in the dining room only 50 people will be admitted. Please sign up
in advance of the talk; you can make your reservation by emailing gerickson@azstateparks.gov or calling (928) 476-4202. If all spots are not taken prior to the event the remaining spots will be given on a first come, first served basis the day of the event until the limit is reached. There will be a PowerPoint presentation about the first people who settled at the Natural Bridge — David Douglas Gowan and his nephew, David Gowan Goodfellow. Several items belonging to the Goodfellows, including the trunk that came over from Scotland with them in 1893 will be on display. The event is covered by the cost of the entrance fee. There will be another program from 11 a.m. to noon, Saturday, Aug. 15 with representatives from the Northern Gila County Historical Society talking about Zane Grey and his impact on the Rim Country. They will discuss who he was and why he was important. They will also talk about his experiences here in the state, the building of his original cabin, and the reasons that he originally came to the Rim Country. It will wrap up with a discussion of the books that he wrote that took place in this area. The location of the event will be at the Red Ramada located in the park.
The event cost will be covered by your entrance fee. FORT VERDE
A visit over the Rim to the Verde Valley will take you to other state parks including Fort Verde State Historic Park in Camp Verde and Dead Horse Ranch State Park in Cottonwood. At Fort Verde you can tour
restored buildings used by the U.S. Army during the late 1860s through the 1880s The fort was a base for General Crook’s U.S. Army scouts and soldiers in the 1870s and 1880s. From 1865-1891, known as Camp Lincoln, Camp Verde and Fort Verde, the site was home to offiCONTINUED ON PAGE 7

cers, doctors, families, enlisted men and scouts. The park is the best-preserved example of an Indian Wars period fort in Arizona. Several of the original buildings still stand and living history programs are scheduled periodically, giving visitors a glimpse into Arizona’s history. As part of Camp Verde’s Corn Fest, Fort Verde will host Vintage Baseball, starting at noon, Saturday, July 18. The Camp Verde Corn Fest is Friday, July 17 and Saturday, July 18. The Verde Valley of central Arizona has the best sweet corn you have ever tasted. It started in 1991 as a way to not only feature the wonderful corn grown in the area, but to have fun with friends and neighbors at the height of the corn season and the summer. Festivities begin at 3 p.m., Friday, July 17 with activities for all ages, music, vendors and, of course, hot, roasted, buttered sweet corn. There will also be uncooked ears of corn sold by the dozen. Saturday is a full day with more delicious corn and even more to do. Consider a river rafting adventure down the Verde River — contact Verde Valley Kayak & Canoe Rental, (928) 468-3474. Visit the Out of Africa Wildlife Park, 3505 W. State Rt. 260, Camp Verde, call (928) 567-2840 for information. There will be a free Corn Fest birding excursion starting at 8 a.m., Saturday, July 18. The excursions will depart from Rezzonico Family Park and will last approximately 90 minutes. Rezzonico Family Park is located in the town of Camp Verde at the southwest corner of Montezuma Castle Highway and the Verde River
at Black Bridge. It is 2.85 miles from I-17 on Montezuma Castle Highway toward Camp Verde, and .55 miles on Montezuma Castle Highway from Main Street in Camp Verde. If you have binoculars, please bring them. Drinking water and walking or hiking shoes are also recommended. Pre-registration is required. Please email whiskycobra1@ gmail.com or call (480) 2421996 to register or to request more information regarding these trips. DEAD HORSE RANCH
The developed portion of Dead Horse Ranch State Park covers 423 acres. The 3,300foot elevation accounts for the mild temperatures that are ideal for camping, mountain biking in the Coconino National Forest, hiking along the Verde River, canoeing, picnicking, fishing, or just wading in the cool water. A six-mile reach of the river is known as the Verde River Greenway State Natural Area. Its unique ecosystem, the cottonwood and willow riparian gallery forest, is one of less than 20 such riparian zones in the world. The Verde River Greenway encompasses nearly 480 acres and is six miles long. Life along the river changes with the season, giving visitors a glimpse of great blue heron, black hawks, coyotes, raccoons, mule deer, beavers, ducks, frogs, and toads. The Verde River and surrounding riparian corridor support nearly 20 threatened or endangered species including river otter, southwestern bald eagles, southwestern willow flycatchers, and lowland leopard frogs. Editor’s note: Material for this article came from the Arizona State Parks website. It offers great information about all the varied state parks in the state, including the many special events each hosts.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Starting something new is always exciting for the adventurous Aries. And here’s the good news: This time you might be able to get some assistance in helping you finish what you’ve started. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Put your daydreaming penchant on hold for now, and face the facts as they are, not as you’d like them to be. Your customary hardheaded approach to “deals,” etc., is called for. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Problems beyond your control might delay some of your plans. But things should start to get back to normal by midweek. The weekend could bring an unexpected (but welcome) visitor. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) It’s a good time to buckle down and tackle those unfinished tasks so you’ll be ready to take on other projects. The week’s end could bring an invitation from a most surprising source. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Mixed signals could create a few stressful moments for the Lion. But by midweek, explanations should help ease the tension. The weekend is party time! Share it with someone special. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) This is a good “catching up” week for finishing tasks, calling old friends and maybe reading that book you haven’t opened yet or renting that movie you wanted to see again. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Money matters should be worked out, even if it takes time away from a more romantic situation. Better to settle things before feelings turn hard and angry on all sides. (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) SCORPIO A job-related problem could turn out to be less troublesome than it seemed at first. Just a few moments of talk ‘twixt the parties resolves everything to everyone’s satisfaction. (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) SAGITTARIUS The Sagittarian Archer takes aim at health and fitness issues this week. Watch your diet, and try to put more exercise time into your typically busy schedule. (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) CAPRICORN As you continue to focus on a career or job change, it’s a good time to look over some of your rarely used skills and see where they can fit into your future workplace plans. (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) AQUARIUS A loved one’s health might be worrisome, but there’s good news by midweek. Expect people who share your ideas and your goals to try to contact youtobyMarch the week’s (Feb. 19 20) end. PISCES A colleague’s request that makes the typically perceptive Pisces feel uncomfortable is a request you probably will want to turn down. The weekend favors family get-togethers. BORN THIS WEEK: You have a gift for making others feel warm and wanted. Even newcomers will feel like old friends. © 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.
